Dans le programme du Bac SGC
English carries a coefficient of 2 in the Bac Sciences de Gestion Comptable (SGC) stream — far behind Accounting (coefficient 8) and Business Organisation (coefficient 6), and level with Philosophy and Law. It is part of the margin that decides rankings and honours, and its mark is raised by method rather than by volume.
À l'épreuve
Three parts: Reading Comprehension, Language, and Writing (about 180 words). An accountant's discipline in ordering and justifying entries transfers to a well-ordered essay plan and a clearly sequenced argument.
Objectifs d'apprentissage
- Apply this grammar point accurately in the Language section and in the guided writing of the Bac SGC English exam (coefficient 2)
- Form and distinguish the zero conditional (general truth) and the first conditional (real future possibility)
- Form the second conditional for a hypothetical or unlikely present situation
- Form the third conditional for a regret or a hypothesis about a finished past fact
- Never use will in the clause introduced by if
Notions clés
Zero and first conditional
Second conditional (unreal present)
Third conditional (unreal past)
Erreurs fréquentes
Putting will in the if-clause: “If it will rain” is wrong — use “If it rains”.
Confusing the second and third types: the second is about the present / future (if + past simple), the third about a finished past fact (if + past perfect).
Forgetting have in would have + past participle in the third type: “would passed” is wrong — use “would have passed”.

Questions fréquentes
How do I recognise which conditional type to use?
Ask first whether the situation is real / likely (first), purely hypothetical in the present (second) or a regret about a past fact that has already happened (third). The tense in the if-clause (present, past simple, past perfect) follows directly from that choice.
Can I mix the second and third conditionals?
Yes, in a “mixed conditional” (outside the strict programme but sometimes accepted): if + past perfect, would + base form, for a past regret with present consequences. The Bac focuses on the four classic types.
was or were after if I in the second conditional?
Both exist in speech, but were (“If I were you”) is the form expected in Bac writing, treated as more carefully correct for all subjects.
English is coefficient 2 against 8 for accounting — how do I balance them?
Do not drop it: a mark in English weighs in the average like a mark in any coefficient-2 subject, and raising it is a matter of method, not accumulation. One weekly session — chapter, rule or words, example, two short paragraphs — plus a fixed template for the introduction and conclusion is enough to secure the marks.
Is this grammar point actually tested on the Bac SGC English paper?
Yes — in the Language section as gap-fill, sentence-joining or error-correction, and indirectly in Writing, where the same structures decide whether a sentence is marked as accurate. One rule, two examples and one typical mistake per point is enough to cover both.
